PREDESTINED DUO-ELECTRIC CENTURY

INTERVIEW WITH MIKEY WAY AND DAVID DEBIAK BY ZACKARY MILLER

Electric Century-the musical duo of former My Chemical Romance bassist Mikey Way and Sleep Station and New London Fire mastermind David Debiak-released their debut album, For the Night to Control, worldwide on July 14 following a highly limited physical release of the album with Kerrang Magazine in 2016. "We've been carrying this thing for so long, now to have the opportunity to share it with everybody is a huge relief," Debiak says.

In the years since Electric Century's Inception, pop culture has again proven that there is an immense power in nostalgia, However, from the beginning, Way and Debiak planned to do nostalgia diflerently-not with a reunion or revival, but with something entirely new. For the Night to Control harks back to the Britpop and new wave music that Debiak and Way grew up loving. "When I was really young, I was drawn to the pop songs that were sad," Way says, "the ones that made you feel weird. You didn't quite know how to articulate the feelings at that age."

Way and Debiak have been friends since around the time Way first scribbled the name Electric Century in a middle school science notebook, but the two were never able to pursue music together due to Way's commitment to My Chemical Romance. When the group disbanded in 2013, the two linked up almost immediately.

Though its creation was chaotic at times, discussing the themes of addiction, death, and loss on For the Night to Control helped lead to Way's recovery and allowed him to return to the formative music of both his and Debiak's childhoods. "Every other time I tried to do something with Dave, I was in a fractured state, and now, for the first time in a long time, I'm not. It's a gift," Way says. "It seemed like the perfect time to finally share it with everybody."

"[At the time], things were fuzzy in Mikey's life-and in mine," Debiak says. "Yet, we still managed to pull something off that we can be very proud of." //////

Two months ago, he walked into John's clinic as if no time had passed at all. John hasn't seen him since.

That he'll drown in the black spaces of his mind, and that one day he will no longer exist. It's always been like this, the dark spots marking out moments in his life he can't remember. Where for just a moment he's someone else. Having a Dissociative identity disorder, he can't even be entirely sure he's really who he says he is. Then he meets Sherlock Holmes. A brilliant detective who when he looks at you can read your entire life story. John is immediately fascinated and afraid, half-wondering if maybe Sherlock can see the other personalities in him and half terrified of the thought of him finding out. Becoming his flatmate seems at once to be a wonderful and horrible idea. Yet as John's Blackouts become more and more severe and his other personalities begin to truly awaken and show themselves with Sherlock's help, the two soon discover that sometimes even the kindest person can harbour a demon best left untouched inside of them. Because not all of John's other personalities play nicely and some may be hiding secrets best left undisturbed...

Love At First Bite ( Hangul : 첫입에 반하다) is a fictional six-member co-ed group formed by E:CLIPSE Media. They released their debut single album, “Immortal Wish”, on October 31, 2014, without any teasers or promotions.

Love At First Bite seemed to come out of nowhere, the first artists under an unknown company and none had fame prior to the group, yet they took the kpop industry by storm with their dark and vampire-like concepts with a majority of their music charting next to groups from big companies. Along with being a full group, they release music in sub-units. Bloody Mary is a sub-unit consisting of their female members: Clara, Angel, & Juliette. RED ROSES is a sub-unit consisting of their male members: Nico, Valentine, & NOIR. They are also a self-produced group, with NOIR and Clara producing a majority of their stuff.

The thing that drags fans into the group has to be their extensive lore, all the members taking the role of vampires from the late 1800s - early 1900s, trying to blend into human society and navigate different human experiences. The members of the group are said to give off vampire vibes even off stage, and many fans wonder if they could actually be vampires. Love At First Bite is named the most successful co-ed group in Kpop and one of the best groups to come out of 3rd Gen.

2014 |  2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022

I want to take some time to share my thoughts on 2023, it's kinda personal and long so you can read it under the cut.

This year has been the hardest year of my adult life. It started with my grandma coming back from the hospital. She was in a terrible state so we had to take care of her almost 24/7. Which was colliding with my work a lot because we we're understaffed. I have very vague memory of the first 4 month of this year because to me it was: go to work, go to my parents to take care of grandma while my parents are at work, go back home, sleep, repeat. Unfortunately grandma passed away near the end of april. But that wasn't the end of my problems, now I had problems with my apartment. Some of you may know I was struggling with bedbugs, I spent over 1k PLN for professional help just for these feckers to come back because they were coming from my neighbors. Then around summer a cable in my kitchen melted and caused a power outage. I'm ending my year with a gaping hole in my bathroom wall because an upstairs neighbor flooded me and the bathroom cabinet had to be removed because it was destroyed by water. It was an awful year for me personally. I'm surprised all that stuff had almost no effect on my art. While picking stuff for this summary I had some hard time picking just one for month. I'm hoping that the next year will be better, because I can't believe it can get any worse. Thank you for following my silly little blorbos from my head, it means so much to me, you have no idea. Here's to more happy Fausts in 2024.
